Hello everyone, I haven't been active much lately. After dealing with some family issues, I sold my 2008 GT500 to my cousin. A convertible is what I really wanted, so I got EXACTLY what I wanted. A 2014 GT500 Convertible with every option. SVTPP, NAV, Recaro seats, Shaker, etc. Completely stock engine, Black with black stripes.

I've owned this car for 2 days and I've already put more miles on it than I have on my 08. I absolutely LOVE this car.





Also picked up a new Daily Driver:
2016 GMC Sierra Denali 2500 Diesel:

I can't keep up with you and your shelbys! I thought you had a 13 gt500 and didn't care for it for some reason.

Nice. Business must be good. :cheers:

Business has been pretty good so far this year. The truck was financed though, figured it would be a good time to build my credit since I don't have much credit history.

Dip this one orange. Please. Thank you.

Ewwwww no dip for me! Either I'm getting old, or the new ones just look so good I want to keep it stock-looking. Probably both.

I can't keep up with you and your shelbys! I thought you had a 13 gt500 and didn't care for it for some reason.

I did. I didn't care for that particular car whatsoever, but that's because the previous owner was a complete moron. That particular car is still sitting at a Ford dealer service department with temp tags on it to this day. Not sure what the next guy did, but I heard he beat the shit out of it non-stop as well.


Also not quite sure which direction I want to go with this one. I have the VMP gen 2 TVS sitting in my garage. I'm not sure if I should sell that and just do a pulley/intake/throttle body and tune, or install the TVS. For now, this car is plenty of fun just like it is so I'm not in a hurry to order any parts.

Fuccck. Thanks for reminding me of how good that looked. :okay2:

Is a gen 2 tvs that much better then the stock blower on the 14? I thought the gen 2 was almost the same as the 14 blower. And leave it black! No orange! Just my 2 cents.

The stock blower is about the same as the gen 1 TVS. The Gen 2 is better, but is it worth the cost over a 13-14 blower? I'm not quite sure. Especially since I don't plan on making stupid power with it.

I'm telling you, we need to just share our cars and switch when we get bored. Sell me some parts!

Nice looking car, man.

Thank you!

It's good to see another mustang fan giving into the convertible urge. ;)

I've always loved convertibles. There's something about them that I've always liked, even when the top isn't down. This is my 3rd convertible and I wouldn't have bought a coupe this time around.
